Would Maxing FA be better then Maxing SA?
Please comment.

2nd build is better. But at the end you should swap PKb with BB and get focus not BoA

Really, with no FA?
How does it the second build make it any better though?

[Elitemage56]

FA is useless if you want to go to 4th job. It is only useful for 2nd job advancement and nothing else. you might as well put the points into Focus, SA, BB and PKB. Check the Sticky at the top for more details on Final Attack.

Yes, I did check it and it said it was very good in most ways, and you wouldn't want FA working in your 3rd Job anyway. Also It would take my ages to get to lvl 70 anyway.

Blessing of the Amazon is the worst skill in Maple Story. Anyone who maxes it intentionally is an idiot.

The rest is up to you. I won't reckon both PKB and FA though, just pick one. (Because PKB got nerfed, otherwise its a great skill.)

2ed one is better. But i'd get booster a little earlier for training faster. o.o PKB is my favorite 2ed job skill. Maxed it is fun to kill mages with at fog and stuff. Anyway, FA SUCKS! as a xbowman. Totally nerfs your iron arrow forever. Pick one: iron arrow or FA. They dont work well together. >.<;;

(for skills it is pkb points or FA points but skill wise, fa doesnt activate with pkb.)

[MagicalBow]

I personally find it a pain in the ass to recast skills at different times, so (assuming you got 9 Focus from 1st job), I would take 10 off of SA and put that into Focus, giving you a maxed Focus, Booster and level 10 SA. This gives you a 300 second Focus/SA and a 200 second Booster. Also, once you get Sharp Eyes maxed, it'll correspond to Focus and SA.
Yay for casting all support skills at once!

This was all talking about the first build you posted. Honestly, when you train at FoG from 6x-7x and you're taking the 3rd/4th floor you won't need PKB that much. Only drawback about this is you might be forced to get AR a bit early, but once you start training without PKB you kinda get used to it.

I know you don't want it at 3rd job So FA is only useful to level 70. Whereas Soul Arrow, booster will last till 4th job and beyond. Getting FA means that you have to sacrifice maxing thesse skills out.

Take another look at the first build he posted.
It's not sacrificing either SA or booster, it's sacrificing PKB and leaves focus at 9, both you can easily live without.
